However, they suddenly lost momentum, and Beasley responded with consecutive dunks, leading Guangdong to a 12-0 run that put them ahead. In the second quarter, Beasley continued his strong performance, helping Guangdong build a double-digit lead. By halftime, Beasley had already set a new season-high score. In the second half, both teams engaged in a tug-of-war. Although Fujian improved their form, Guangdong refused to let their lead be narrowed. In the final quarter, Gillenwater made multiple drives to the basket, scoring the first eight points of the quarter for Guangdong.
